Ingredients
  

Fudge Base
  • 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips good quality makes a difference!
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk 14-ounce
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Swirl
  • 1 jar marshmallow crème 7-ounce, such as Fluff or Jet-Puffed

Equipment

  • 8x8-inch baking pan
  • Parchment paper
  • Heavy-bottomed saucepan
  • Spatula
  • Butter knife or skewer
  • Cutting board

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing an overhang on the sides for easy removal, and lightly grease the parchment.
  2. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat, combine chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter.
  3. Stir continuously until the chocolate and butter are fully melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy, keeping the heat low to prevent scorching.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.
Assembly
  1. Pour the hot fudge mixture into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
  2. Spoon about 6-8 dollops of marshmallow crème over the hot fudge, spaced out.
  3. Gently drag a butter knife or skewer through the marshmallow and fudge in broad, sweeping swirling patterns to create distinct swirls.
Finishing
  1. Refrigerate the fudge for 2-4 hours, or until completely firm.
  2. Use the parchment overhangs to lift the fudge from the pan, then cut into 1-inch squares for serving.

Notes

For best results, use good quality chocolate chips, as it significantly impacts the flavor of the fudge. Ensure the marshmallow crème is at room temperature for easier swirling. Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for extended freshness.
